Many people believe that alcohol is an "aphrodisiac" and a "sexual stimulant." Therefore, when people desire intimacy or have low sexual desire, they often drink to create an atmosphere or "boost momentum." However, as the old saying goes, "drinking to drown your sorrows only makes you more sorrowful", those who use alcohol to stimulate sexual desire will also encounter similar embarrassment. "Although some men seem to take longer to ejaculate than usual after drinking, it is absolutely not advisable to use this method to aid sexual desire." Zhang Rui, deputy chief physician of the Department of Andrology at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine, told Life Times reporters that the paralyzing effect of alcohol will inhibit the brain center and reduce the sensitivity of the glans, thereby prolonging the time of ejaculation. However, nerve inhibition can also put people in a "numb" state, unable to fully experience the pleasure of sexual life. In addition, erectile function is often poor after drinking, and body movements may be relatively rough, which is harmful rather than beneficial to sex. Excessive drinking can also affect the secretion of testosterone in men, causing testicular atrophy, thereby affecting sperm production or directly damaging sperm. Therefore, although drinking alcohol may seem to help sexual performance, it actually “ruins sexual performance”. To improve your sexual performance, you might as well work on developing healthy habits such as drinking tea and coffee. Professor Han Chi, a researcher at the Institute of Nutrition and Food Safety at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, introduced that tea has health benefits such as preventing cancer, regulating blood lipids, lowering blood sugar, enhancing immune function, and preventing damage from smoking. Coffee, one of the world's three major beverages, is also a versatile health-promoting beverage. Its antioxidant activity and ability to scavenge free radicals are comparable to those of green tea. It can also promote digestion. Even just smelling the aroma of coffee can refresh the mind and eliminate fatigue. Therefore, people who drink tea and coffee for a long time will have younger blood vessels. For men, this means that the penis will be better engorged with blood, the erection will be stronger, and it will last longer. In addition, drinking tea or coffee can also help your sex life. Most people are accustomed to enjoying sex at night, but the fatigue of a day's work often makes people either tired of coping with sex or "give up halfway". If you can drink a cup of tea or coffee at the right time, it can not only excite your nerves and eliminate fatigue, but also mobilize your emotions, increase the body's sensitivity to external stimuli, and deepen the impression of pleasure produced in sexual life. Studies have shown that drinking a cup of coffee (a cup is 200 ml) before sex can bring about an orgasm earlier. Since this effect is more obvious in women, some experts suggest that if couples are not in sync in their sexual intercourse, the wife should drink a cup of coffee about half an hour before sex. |
